If you hate to laugh-out-loud, don’t read Mudshark. From the principal’s announcements at the beginning of each chapter to the escaped gerbil, disappearing erasers, and a psychic parrot, readers will find themselves letting laughs escape. (Don’t’ take this to church to surreptitiously read during the sermon.) Amid the laughs, the Mudshark Detective Agency, with it’s one and only employee Lyle Williams (aka Mudshark), has mysteries to solve. He must find the erasers and the gerbil, or he will no longer be the boy who everyone knows can find the answers.
